Songs That Involuntarily Make me Cry

And when I say involuntarily, I mean my attempts to stop crying fail. I have to walk out the room to prevent or stop this. But it doesn't necessarily mean I'm crying because I'm sad, this is often due to how beautiful the song is.

Annie's Song (acoustic mix)

This song is just so beautiful, my body immediately reacts to the song whatever state I'm in. For some reason, I think about how Denver died in a plane crash, which doesn't actually help. The peaceful, soft, smooth tune and sweet lyrics, sung in Denver's voice always makes me break down.

This one really gets me. The video makes it feel even sadder, but there are certain aspects of the music that really express feelings - particularly the bit near the end, where Avril adds some powerful emotion and we get a clearer view of a few lives of people. But mostly it hits me when at the beginning where there's a lovely melody, and when after so much effort goes into expressing these emotions, she says: 'I miss you'.
